What Are Same-Day Dental Implants?
Same-day dental implants replace a missing or failing tooth by placing a titanium implant and attaching a temporary tooth in a single visit, so you do not leave with a gap. At Diamondback Dentistry in North Phoenix, Dr. Pouria Owtad, DMD, checks your gum health and bone with 3D imaging first and gives you a written estimate before treatment. Your final restoration is placed later, once the implant has healed and bonded with your jawbone.
- Implant and a temporary tooth in one visit When you qualify, we place the implant and attach a temporary tooth the same day, so you are not left with a gap while you heal.
- Placement in a single appointment The implant goes in during one visit. Your final tooth follows after the implant heals, usually over a few months.
- Built on your own healthy bone Same-day placement depends on enough healthy bone and gums to support the implant, which we confirm with a 3D scan.
- Looks and works like a natural tooth Your restoration is shaped and shaded to match your own teeth, so you can bite, chew, and smile with confidence.
- A written estimate before treatment You get the cost of your treatment in writing before we begin, so there are no surprise bills.
- Most PPO plans accepted We verify your benefits for free and give you a written estimate first. Coverage varies by plan, so call to confirm yours.

What Is Recovery Like After Same-Day Implants?
Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how manageable recovery is. Here is what to expect from the day of your visit through healing, so there are no surprises. Your exact timeline depends on your treatment, and Dr. Owtad reviews it with you.
The Day of Your Visit
When you qualify, you leave with a temporary tooth in place, not a gap. The numbing wears off over a few hours, and some soreness or mild swelling is normal. Plan to take it easy for the rest of the day and stick to soft foods.
The First Few Days
Soreness and swelling usually ease within a few days. Most patients manage with over-the-counter or prescribed pain relief, keep to softer foods, and gently clean the area the way we show you. Many are back to their normal routine quickly.
As Your Implant Heals
Over the next few months, your implant bonds with the bone. You follow simple aftercare and come in for a few short checkups so we can watch it heal. Once it is ready, we place your final restoration. Call us any time at (602) 866-8183 if something does not feel right.
Same-Day Implant Options: Single Tooth, Full Arch, or Full Mouth
Same-day placement puts your implant and a temporary tooth in during one visit, while traditional implants heal before any tooth is attached. Dr. Owtad looks at how many teeth you are replacing and the health of your bone and gums, then recommends the option that fits your smile.

Learn about full-mouth implantsHow Same-Day Dental Implants Work, in 3 Steps
Same-day dental implants happen in stages, even though the implant and a temporary tooth go in on one day. Dental implants are a well established way to replace missing teeth, and the American Dental Association recognizes them as a long-term option that helps preserve the jawbone.
Exam and 3D Imaging
Dr. Owtad examines your mouth and takes 3D images to check your bone and gum health, then reviews whether same-day placement is right for you. You get a written estimate, and if you have insurance, a breakdown of what we expect it to cover before anything starts.
Implant Placement and a Temporary Tooth
If a tooth needs to come out, we can remove it and place the implant under local anesthesia, then attach a temporary tooth in the same visit when you qualify. You leave with a tooth in place, not a gap. If you need a bone graft first, we tell you at your consultation.
Healing and Your Final Tooth
Once your implant heals and bonds with the bone, usually over a few months, we place your final restoration and check the fit, color, and bite. Then we show you how to care for your new tooth so it lasts as long as possible.

What Patients Say About Diamondback Dentistry
Same-Day Dental Implant Questions, Answered
Answers to what North Phoenix patients ask most about same-day dental implants. Do not see your question? Call (602) 866-8183 and we will help.
What are same-day dental implants?
Same-day dental implants replace a missing or failing tooth by placing a titanium implant and attaching a temporary tooth in one visit, so you do not leave with a gap. At Diamondback Dentistry in North Phoenix, your final restoration is placed later, after the implant heals and bonds with your jawbone. Whether same-day placement fits you depends on your bone and gum health.
Am I a candidate for same-day dental implants?
You may be a candidate if you have enough healthy bone and gums to support an implant right away. If you have gum disease or have lost bone, that is often treated first, and a bone graft may be needed before placement. Dr. Owtad confirms whether same-day treatment is right for you with a 3D scan at your North Phoenix consultation.
How does the same-day dental implant procedure work?
First we examine your mouth and take 3D images to check your bone. If a tooth needs to come out, we can remove it, place the implant, and attach a temporary tooth in the same visit when you qualify. Your final tooth is placed after healing. Learn what to expect while you heal on our dental implant recovery page.
Do you really get permanent teeth in one day?
You get a temporary tooth the same day your implant is placed, not the final one. The permanent restoration is made and fitted after your implant bonds with the bone, which usually takes a few months. This staged approach protects the implant while it heals, so your finished tooth looks and works its best. We confirm your timeline at your visit.
How much do same-day dental implants cost in North Phoenix?
The cost depends on how many teeth you are replacing, whether you need an extraction or bone graft, the type of restoration, and imaging. Because it varies, Diamondback Dentistry gives you a written estimate before treatment begins and reviews what your plan covers. See our dental implant cost page or call (602) 866-8183 for a quote for your situation.
Does dental insurance cover same-day dental implants?
Coverage varies by plan. Many PPO plans pay a portion of implant treatment after your deductible, and annual maximums often apply, so patients often combine insurance with financing. Diamondback Dentistry accepts most major PPO plans, verifies your benefits for free, and files your claims for you. Call (602) 866-8183 to confirm what your plan covers.
How long do same-day dental implants last?
The implant itself is designed to be a long-term, even permanent, foundation, while the tooth on top may need maintenance or replacement over the years. With good daily care and regular checkups, many patients enjoy their results for a very long time. Read more on our guide to how long dental implants last.
